SHOTGUN!!

[shorebird]

Remember when we were all talking about what we'd like to see more of from this offense, and a few of us, me included, stated that we'd like to see the shotgun more, and the bootleg, and playaction. Well, those calls dominated the second half comeback that the Eagles staged today. I'd be willing to bet that Dmac was in the shotgun at least 1/3 of all plays in the second half.

I still don't like that McNabb threw nearly 50 passes, but it beats watching Westbrook run into defenders.

Westbrook in the slot, Gordon & Moats in the backfield. Shibanga!

And did Reggie Brown play today??

[shorebird]

You ain't kidding, why don't they run to the corners, spread the D and let Bwest pick his holes? He's not going to power it between the tackles.

They did it a couple of times, but the blocking wasn't that hot. And the running into defenders thing.

[SD_Eagle5]

Westbrook's best off tackle through the 6 and 5 hole, no idea why Andy insists on running him between the tackle. Gordon looked good 

[shorebird]

Gordon looked real good. I liked what he did in the open field the one time he caught a pass and had room to run. He ran up the gut much better than Bwest did.

And did Reggie Brown play today??

Yeah. He was open on a couple of the times McNabb made a bad throws. He had a TD bounce off his hands which was a hard catch anyways.

[shorebird]

But how about Reid going with the shotgun so much? I loved it.

[hunt]

gordon friggin rules...i knew it all along.

[shorebird]

Like I was saying, I love them going with the shotgun so much, it's the weapon of a true pass happy wco. I'd be willing to bet we see it all season long, especially if we're coming from behing. No sense not using it, Reid is going to pass first and everyone knows it, but no team can stop it.

Being down 24-6 so early kinda forced him to throw so much.

But since Dallas can't cover for shtein - expect 50 more next week.

that might have added 5 extra attempts but the bottom line is the eagles are gonna throw the farg outta the ball every game...nothing more needs to be said than what aikman correctly pointed out that the eagles were out of their minds for still throwing the ball late in the game

theres no need to even complain anymore about the run pass ratio...it is what it is

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yep. Big Red's going to throw, throw, throw.

Screw Aikman, it was a ten point game with over three minutes left. How is that crazy for throwing?
